Huh, so you can hear things explode in space, after all. If you're close enough to a warp field doing funny things, the gravitational wave strain would create audible-frequency artifacts, as it wiggles your eardrums at frequencies close enough to the audible. They derive an equation for estimated strain as a function of distance from the warp bubble collapse. How does strain translate to sound intensity, in the situa…
This is excellent. Like the Dyson sphere, predicting signals for technologies that we can imagine but not yet construct seems like a great way to guide our search for other life. Now we need a team of smart folks to identify tearing or other processing anomalies in universe-scale simulations.
If you like spooky stuff there is lots of fun things to think about. Just off the cuff; We are predicting a soul upload technology with Neuralink etc. So an alien technosignature could look like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/21_grams_experiment This one is not rigorous but there are lots of other possibilities of this pattern.

Would it even wiggle the eardrums relatively to the rest of your head? Intuitively it seems that would only happen if the wavelength is exactly right, but at that wavelength the frequency would be inaudible because the speed of light is so high.

That ringing in your ears you get once in a while... ?

I'm curious about this, sometimes also when one ear suddenly sounds different for a short time.

1. I asked "how powerful" such waves would have to be to be audible.
2. I directly linked to another question whose accepted answer said "these waves can wiggle your ear drum"
3. Got my question closed as a duplicate but the link was to different question that only asked "is it possible" (and accepted the answer "yes") without there being any answer to the "how powerful" part.
4. Got an answer which said "no, never".
Of course, I can now get an infinite supply of confusing contradictions from ChatGPT, and because I ask questions from a position of ignorant curiosity, I'm equally incapable of discerning which of the mutually incompatible responses I get is definitely incorrect regardless of if it comes from an LLM or a trained physicist.

One of the reasons I no longer ask questions on Physics stack exchange: 1. I asked "how powerful" such waves would have to be to be audible. 2. I directly linked to another question whose accepted answer said "these waves can wiggle your ear drum" 3.
